#sailing #solosailing #maxspeed
Sailing on my own to Darwin today. Not much wind so I decided to see how well I can tune the sails to get the maximum out of my Crowther performance catamaran.
I had a sea bird come land on deck. I named him Fred and he stayed with me for 2 days.
This was quite a challenging passage to do solo as there was lots of navigating to do, lots of tidal currents to deal with and shifting winds. I love a good challenge though.
Join me for this passage across one the most remote places in Australia.
Thanks for watching
